Loyola at a Glance

80 Scenic Acres

At the center of Loyola’s beautiful 80-acre campus is the academic Quad, which vibrantly comes to life as students arrive to begin a new academic year. On brisk fall mornings, you’ll often find students walking across campus to grab a coffee at Starbucks in the Student Center before heading to class. In the afternoon, you’ll find students lounging on the Humanities porch, studying quietly or chatting with friends.

Residence Life

Loyola’s residence halls are ranked as some of the best in the country,
but it’s not just the amenities that make them so wonderful; it’s the
connections and lifelong friendships that are formed within them. From
our eco-friendly residence hall for first-year students, Flannery
O’Connor Hall, to our apartment-style suites on the west side of campus,
students can find a quiet spot for studying, relax with friends in a
lounge, or pick up a late night snack at a nearby dining venue.
